Dragonhold

[h2]Divinity II - Ego Draconis lässt grüßen[/h2] Das Spielprinzip zwischen beiden Spielen ist nicht von der Hand zu weisen, wobei Dragonhold noch Base bzw. Town building mit im Angebot hat. Das fliegen mit dem Drachen macht schon Spaß und ist recht einfach gestaltet. Der immer mögliche Wechsel von Mensch- zu Drachenform oder andersrum bietet viel Freiheit sich durch die Welt (keine Open World) zu bewegen. Das fliegen alleine, was ja die Stärke des Spiels sein soll, dürfte allerdings schnell eintönig werden, weshalb auch ordentlich Content am Boden benötigt wird. Denn im Grunde fliegt man mit dem Drachen und zerstört Gegner oder Dinge. Und wie sich der Gameplay Part mit einem der 3 wählbaren Charakterklassen entwickeln soll, bleibt abzuwarten. Deren Kampfsystem ist aktuell, wie beim Drachen, sehr simpel gehalten und bietet kaum eine Herausforderung. Ein Skillsystem ist vorhanden, welches aber ebenfalls mager aussah. Insgesamt spielt sich die Drachen- und Menschform sehr Arcade lastig. Kurz um, es steck noch viel Arbeit in dem Spiel. Ob es die Tiefe eines Rollenspiels wie Divintiy 2 erreicht und ob es das überhaupt will, kann ich nicht beantworten. Aktuell würde ich raten lieber noch abwarten. Denn die 1.0 Version spielt sich eher wie eine Beta.

I do not get why there is so much negativity towards this game. Yes there are things that could be better in the game but when I got my dragon it was awesome. Combat is kinda weird at first but after the tutorial boss fight everything just clicked! I am truly loving the game and for its price right now what else are you going to spend that money on. Really people just being negative and give these people time to iron out the stuff! Keep up the work devs your doing great!

Let them cook... the price is not to bad and looks good. Needs some love but its new, Stop review bombing it for no reason.

Not bad but not good be better if it didn't crash every 10 or so minutes

The devs have my support. This game has a ton of potential. A ton. The developer is sitting on a gold mine if they could just fine tune the game just a bit more. Could be one of the best PvE extraction multiplayer games that we have avail. I would like to see a few dedicated servers from the developers with 10-16 players on the map. Letting people run servers isn't working and all of them are empty and is a waste when you could just run a few dedicated servers and a few community ones. Would be really fun and give that adrenaline rush to get loot and extract from other dragon riders. I didn't really feel that rush in single player mode. The way this game is setup it doesn't feel like it should be single player. The map is huge and could play alot like arc raiders. If they added random PvE boss fights that took people working together to take them down and then dive in for the loot and have dragon fighting idk. Something different than guns and stuff. This could be an amazing high stakes pvp/pve game. It sets itself apart from other extraction games while keeping the formula the same. SO MUCH POTENTIAL! I saw pictures of some round gameplay? So maybe the devs have something in mind. The combat is very janky but the foundation is there. I have only played the rouge class and it felt like really watered down warframe combat. I kept trying to play it like warframe. I really wish there was a dodge or block. I wasn't able to find the keys for that. I button spammed and had no luck. The game does get better as you play and unlock more abilities and weapons. Its not absolutely terrible by any means. The dragon riding is fun, I LOVE the fact you can land the dragon and take off from the ground as well. That's missing in a lot of dragon riding games. There are a lot of dragon skins and what not. I've only played as the striker class. The movement is good and fluid. That part of the game I am happy with even if it is still a bit janky. The base building is weird but it makes sense to gather stuff and extract it to build your base and unlock more characters, cosmetics and dragons. Makes a good gameplay loop. The game needs a FOV slider. Be like helldivers and add the ability to earn paid currency in the game? Not sure if that is implemented but its nice to appreciate the players time into the game. It also makes people want to play and grind more. Equals player retention. I know not everything should be online multiplayer but I think if the developers push this to be more of a PvE 10-16 player game it would be a lot of fun once the jankyness gets sorted out. They should keep the single player mode as well for people who don't care to play online. The combat and enemies need some work. I'm assuming pvp would be difficult because you cant really balance players off their dragons and players on their dragons. It would be instakill. I would also like to see more verticality in the map. Floating islands or cliffs. The boss areas need verticality as well and ways to get out on foot. It was very confusing to land in a huge castle and be stuck in there with no way out other than the blue door at end of a courtyard. The devs have my support I think the idea on paper is very cool and its almost there. I really hope they decide to run some dedicated servers with 10-16 players, and fine tune the combat and enemies. Then I would really love to recommend it to friends and sink a lot of time into it. I wouldn't have called this a 1.0 release it gives people the idea that the game is in a more finished state and its not. This is def a beta or even an alpha test it feels like. I really like the idea here I just think it needs a lot more time to cook but i understand that making games also takes money. You all probably started to run low on funds and needed to release the game. Or just needed the money to push the game in a better direction. If you like extraction shooter gameplay and you like fantasy and dragon riding I think the game is worth throwing $20 to support the developers. Think of it like a little kickstarter backing I guess. I won't refund the game even though I'm not totally happy with its current state. I do support the vision. Anyway I'm done yapping. This is just my two cents that I personally think could make the game a lot better and retain players, as well as some thoughts on stuff. I might pick up this game for my partner just to have somebody to play with. The combat is just really weird at the moment. Ill probably wait a few months to see if anything changes.

I think it is pretty cool.

For the price, it's a good game. Do I feel its repetitive, yes! Having different cards to change weather and other things is a pretty neat way to go about it. Although, after awhile even that gets a bit boring. The knight class needs some healing buffs or something, the mage is my preferred choice as this allows you to attack at a distance and stay in the game long enough to get access to the dragon. Haven't tried the rogue just yet, but if it's anything like the knight, I'd stay away. Also one of the skins for the stalker Juggernaut is like $400 just yesterday...Yea, not gonna happen there. Today, I looked and its price has dropped to $10....but when you try to purchase it...won't let you. Yea they have some things to work on for sure. Again fun game for the price, just don't buy if you don't care for games feeling repetitive. Or don't have the patience to learn the game.

Its a very fun game. You get to have a relatively easy to understand game and nice maps, some fun mechanics, and you get to be a F*CKING DRAGON?! What more do you need.
